I think the fact that the Dudleys weren't included in that list is the most ridiculous thing.

It makes sense when most of you have newer teams listed as the greatest of all time. You guys weren't around to watch these teams wrestle. The tag teams now are a joke compared to the teams of yesterday.

Edge and Christian were hands down the greatest tag team of all time.

The Hardys shouldn't really be anywhere near the top since in there prime as a team they weren't even the best team in the WWE. Edge & Christian got the better of them most of the times and won almost every big match they had againist the them in big events. Not saying E&C are one of the top 2 or 3 but for sure in the top 10 maybe top 5 the Hardys and Dudleys may have looked good during those ladder and TLC match, but E&C one more of them then they lost.

Edge and Christian were hands down the greatest tag team of all time. Not a chance in the world. The Road Warriors are easily the greatest of all time and there's no one remotely close. You obviously missed the early to mid 80's (and even before then) whne LOD was just as popular as any singles wrestler out there. How often do you see a tag team that can draw as well as a single's guy? It's a given, that the money in wrestling is in the single's division. There's a reason why pretty much every PPV features mainly single's matches. LOD was the exception to that rule. They were a huge draw.

Hogan and LOD are the most popular but 1 or 2 as the greatest? To say no one is remotly close? Dude if you want to get technical about popularity, the Von Erichs sold out more arenas based on thier names alone than the Road Warriors could even dream about. But since this is exclusivly wwe tag teams its a moot point

umm i say hardy's, E&C and the dudleys are the 3 greatest ever I agree, nothing beats those days imo, Billy & Chuck & The New Age Outlaws also up there. How come these guys haven't been mentioned by anyone but me? <3 it In the modern era (1998-2008) There has been no team better than NAO, imo.. The had the talk, to look, they were over, they could wrestle...

wow reading these lists make me sad... Best teams in no order: LOD, Demolition, Hart Foundation, Steiner Bros (mid nineties), R&R Express, British Bulldogs, London & Kendrick, E&C, Tully & Arn.

No one was better at that than LOD in the day. The Von Erichs were hugely over in their area, but LOD was popular no matter where they went around the country. They weren't just a regional attraction. Why does someone like Hogan or Flair top the list of greatest wrestlers? Because of their drawing power and ability to entertain, not necessarily their work rate in the ring.

Couldn't agree more. My list would be 1) Edge and Christian 2) Hardyz 3) Dudley Boyz 4) MNM5) World's Greatest Tag Team6) Rated RKO7) Paul London and Brian Kendrick8) Los Guerreros 9) Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio10) APATop 10 Greatest tag teams of the modern era Are you serious? They wouldn't make any true wrestling fans top 10. I meant of the modern era, from 2000 onward. And I didn't mention New Age Outlaws because the broke up at the beginning of 2000. From 2000-2008 those are who I believe are the greatest tag teams. That would be my personal opinion.

Road Warriors, Steiner Brothers (top 2 tag teams) and Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan (top 2 singles) could fill any arena in the world in their days. The best thing the Von Erichs sold out was the north endzone of Texas Stadium and the Dallas Sportatorium, which is like a flea market

Hardy's at number 2 is joke, they only got that spot because they are still with the company.
However, I got to disagree with you on the Road Warriors, they aren't the greatest of wrestlers, but they are the biggest drawing tag team of all time that spawned wannabe teams like the Powers of Pain and Demolition.
They were great performers that knew how to get a crowd reaction that didn't involve spots.
